Question: Can I deploy Next Generation 9-1-1 without a statewide plan?
Answer: Yes! Did you know that in 2011, only four states had developed a comprehensive strategy to deploy NG9-1-1? By 2019, more than 30 states had an NG9-1-1 plan in place, and there are more on the way.

*Now you might be thinking, Wait, what? I thought NGA 911 was a new company.*
**Young, but not new to Public Safety.**
We got our start in 2015 when NGA 911 CEO and co-founder Don Ferguson developed an application that created a bridge between at-risk youth and the resource officers assigned to their schools. The app, kind of an "easy button," connected kids to officers any time, night,...
